GARCIA-RAMOS, CL et al. Lumbar degenerative spondylolisthesis II: treatment and controversies. Acta ortop. mex [online]. 2020, vol.34, n.6, pp.433-440.  Epub 13-Jun-2022. ISSN 2306-4102.  https://doi.org/10.35366/99144.

There are various approaches and surgical techniques with the objective of nerve root decompression, restrict mobility, and fusion of the listhesis. Among the techniques, posterior interbody fusion combines direct and indirect root decompression with the fusion between vertebral bodies, placing an autologous bone graft between transverse apophysis and vertebral bodies. Transforaminal lumbar and posterior interbody fusion, on the same way, look to decompress and fuse but with a different approach to the spine. The anterior approach for interbody fusion provides a better fusion rate. Lateral lumbar interbody fusion is considered less invasive, with an anterolateral transpsoas approach. The lumbar fusion technique in degenerative spondylolisthesis must be individualized. Non-fusion decompression is considered a less invasive procedure. Various studies suggest that decompression has better results when fusion is added. Surgery had several potential benefits and greater improvement in those patients who fail conservative management. An optimal technique is not conclusively identified.
